What is
Glaucoma?
Known as the “silent thief of sight,” glaucoma refers to a group of vision-threatening conditions that cause damage to your optic nerve. Patients with glaucoma have an unusually high intraocular pressure (IOP), typically caused by fluid backed up from a blockage. If left untreated, high IOP will impact your optic nerve, preventing your eyes and brain from communicating for clear eyesight. The team at Dalton Family Eyecare uses a number of cutting-edge diagnostic tools, including the Diopsys® NOVA-VEP Vision Testing System, to detect signs of glaucoma and certain other eye diseases early on to protect your sight.
